Behind the scenes on
The Next Iron Chef, Food Network’s culinary production team is responsible for making sure that the rival chefs have everything they need to cook and present their dishes — from a stocked pantry to plenty of serving vessels. This week they
shared some fun facts about what it took to pull off the penultimate episode’s
Montauk seafood challenge.

In the Hamptons, the chefs purchased fish from Gosman’s Fish Market. All the fish had been caught that morning or the previous day. What was available to them?

Lobster, mussels, clams, fluke, black bass, bluefish and tuna
